GREEN BAY – UW-Green Bay Assistant Teaching Professor Taskia Ahammad Khan has been selected as one of the Universities of Wisconsin 2024-25 Wisconsin Teaching Fellows & Scholars.

“This year’s program participants come from the Universities of Wisconsin’s 11 comprehensive universities and UW-Milwaukee. Wisconsin Teaching Fellows and Scholars (WTFS) must demonstrate excellent teaching skills and have a curiosity about student learning to be nominated by Provosts. The yearlong program begins in late May and will culminate with a research presentation at the annual Spring Conference on Teaching and Learning in April 2025,” a UW release stated.

“WTFS provides UW faculty and teaching academic staff a unique opportunity to collaborate with other exceptional teachers from across the Universities of Wisconsin and from various disciplines. In addition to discussing effective evidence-based teaching and learning approaches, participants are guided through systematic research focused on improving student learning through a Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) project, the 25th year of using this format.”

Wisconsin Teaching Fellows & Scholars is one of three Universities of Wisconsin’s Office of Professional and Instructional Development (OPID) signature programs.

“OPID supports the Universities of Wisconsin’s 13 Centers for Teaching and Learning in fostering a culture of teaching and learning excellence in Wisconsin. Together they offer professional development programs that ensure student learning in face-to-face, online, and blended learning environments. Fay Akindes is OPID Director,” the release added.

Khan works with the Resch School of Engineering and is being recognized for her work in electrical engineering.
